Paul Ryan Will NOT Seek Re-election!

It's been reported that this November Republicans will be looking for a new Speaker of the House as current Speaker Paul D. Ryan from Wisconsin will be announcing to House Republican collegues today that he is not seeking re-election this coming November. Who will take his place?
